The old school guys from the 80s, 90s and early 2000s, based on a lot of things. Game devs were nerds who often read a bunch of cool old literature, played tabletop games, saw loads of epic movies, etc.

Nowadays, modern game devs seem to base games on... games.
Hayao Miyazaki said something similar about anime. Artists from his generation tended to make anime based on their interests, experiences or fantasies while today's artists are shutins who are afraid of interacting with other people and thus base their anime on other anime, leading to a cycle of cannibalization until not a single original thought is left. It's peak culture industry, people have been so brainwashed by bland products masquerading as art they can't even comprehend art as anything other than another iteration of the same trash. And they don't even need to sell their shit, which just shows how deeply this problem runs.

I remember that interview, it was a real 'if only you knew how bad things really are' moment.

You start seeing this phenomenon basically everywhere once you start looking for it. Even the sex stuff in this game is a good example. If you read literature (particularly fantasy/sci-fi) from more than 40 years ago it's almost funny how horny for women those guys were. Just this slavering horndogginess when they describe an attractive woman. The fetish in those books is busting a nut in an attractive woman, no more and no less. It comes across as Boomer cringe to a modern reader, but there's actually something endearingly honest and healthy about it.

Contrast that with the weird fetish stuff in this game. I used to think it was some kind of ironic scatalogical joke, but it's become clear that these writers have just developed these totally warped, unnatural fetishes that no healthy person should have. It's particularly pronounced here, but you see it in a more diluted form throughout the entire industry - male gaze is out, miserable thankless monologue about asexuality is in.

Every day Alex Jones' theory about xenoestrogens in the water proves more and more true.

This is what happens when you have decades of feminists and gender studies activists telling these young men and women that their natural hormonal feelings aren't normal. Men's attraction to beautiful and young women is wrong. It makes them a rapist or a sex predator. Women being attracted to men isn't normal. Women don't need men anymore. Men are obsolete. A lot of this is taught in schools, universities and shoved in entertainment. Because of this many young men and women have developed unhealthy and unnatural fetishes to cope with their hormonal feelings. Look at how much rape fetish fic is made by women today. They are so desperate for a man, any man, to touch them in some way but men today are afraid to talk to women now due to #MeToo and being accused of sexual harassment that they don't bother anymore. This causes a lot of women to project and develop a outright disgusting and abhorrent fetish. A fetish for rape. With men they are told that being attracted to women is "unnatural" so they end up developing fetishes for what ever they can stick their dick into. This is all just outright sad if you think about it.

They don't try to sell you a 'lore-friendly' mod which is actually just you fucking dogs, they simply upload a mod and say 'this mod allows you to fuck dogs'.
True, but some mods on LL are surprisingly lore friendly. Seriously. It's this marriage of autism and horniness that simply just works and manages to create works of high art. The Frontier "people" lack that creative autism and in its place have new age mental illness.

Not all of sci-fi works, some of them. It is a known truth that old men are pervs, especially sci-fi writers, as they most likely were kissless nerds during their teenage years, which has obvious results. Even then, it is not as bad as blatant fetishes written in as part of the "lore", turning original elements into "modern day" equivalents (ie: a fucking feminist black robot), and so on.
The tranny devs also go out of their way to attack everyone that critizices this abomination, which is both funny and sad.
Speaking of: That video with the deathclaw doesn't seem to have a snu-snu scene. Was that part cut? Is there a fade to black? Or where the devs too incompetent/lazy to add the proper animations? I wouldn't be surprised if it was the last one.

Mod was mostly developed in the past two years.

Full stream:

"If we had time to do rewrites but we couldnt." Man, you didnt need to do rerwrites just had a "No retardation rule." on the first draft, I understand a mod not having professional writing, people are lambasting them not because their mod doesnt have professional writing or that isnt as good as New Vegas, that isnt the point, the problem is the retardation and poor broken gameplay completely undermined their efforts and they could have easily avoided that. I mean, mods like Tamriel Rebuilt have a guideline that all interested modders must follow or they arent on the project, this avoid butthurt because the modder knows the rules before accepting working and doesnt have his work thrown out and make sure that retarded trash doesnt enter on the mod.

If this guy had a guideline like that and still massive doses of retardation entered on the mod, it is totally their fault and not "Oh, we poor modders, we dont have resources to make something good.".

The tasteful rape doesnt bother me but tasteful rape needs a decent context, raping death claws is stupid no matter if you are puritan or not.

They could have hidden the porn behind a "wild wasteland" style perk (EROTIC WASTELAND) too since they didn't want Frontier to be seen as just a fetish mod. Instant protection from mockery since people would say "yeah but you have to go out of your way to find it".

doing something for free isn't an excuse for doing shit work


I could jizz on a tissue and staple it to a lamppost "for free".

The guy talks about "vitriol", but what did he expect? His team outed themselves as having some very strange tastes. I think the word "degeneracy" is overused these days, but it's applicable here.

7 years to make the mod authors fetish fuel fever dream...


Extraordinary. Is there nothing these people won't attempt to colonise and destroy?


No, that's why they win.

Listen. And understand. That woke enbee gender queer social marxist is out there. It can't be bargained with. It can't be reasoned with. It doesn't feel pity, or remorse, or fear. And it absolutely will not stop, ever, until you bake the fucking cake.
